Talk me into it

I think I want to do boudoir photos. And of course I want to do them with Jenny GG, since I've heard a million good things about her on here. I want to do them maybe for my birthday (next month). Not that my body is even close to "fit." When I started working with my trainer I had 115lb to lose to meet my personal goal. I haven't stepped on a scale since, so I don't know how much I've lost or how much I still have yet to go. But, the main reason I want to do it is because I feel more strong, sexy and confident than I ever have, despite my size and I want to capture that. 

BUT I have started to contact her no less than 6 times, only to back out. I don't know what the hang-up is! I think I need a friendly push.

Re: Talk me into it

  • DO IT!! I had mine done about 2 months before my wedding when I was at my heaviest I had ever been. I went in not feeling confident and not being happy with how I looked. When I got my pictures back I was completely blown away. I loved how I looked and the photographer was able to put me in positions that were good for making me look good and not showing all the rolls I had lol. I am now much healthier than I was then but I still love those pictures to this day because looking at them makes me feel all sexy and pretty. So do them! As long as the photographer has experience taking them you will not regret it.

  • Just had them done, see post above, haha.

    Best decision ever.

    I am not at my ideal size but it's the size I've been for like 6 yrs. DH loved me this way when we were married and I will probably be this way forever so why not try to embrace it.

  • Dooo eeeet. Having gorgeous, sexy photos is a fantastic way to build confidence, and it's SO much fun. :D

    I definitely plan to do this myself sometime post-baby, probably for a present for DH. ;)

  • Omg, do it. she is seriously the best person ever! She will make you feel so beautiful. FWIW, i weighed 330 or 340 when I had my pictures done. I felt more beautiful in those pictures than on any day of my life.. no joke. She is a miracle worker. Stop putting it off.. just give her a call.. and schedule. it's so easy and you'll be SO glad you did. I promise!

  • DO IT!

    she is such a rockstar--i've done boudoir sessions with her TWICE, and i also snuck in a few shots with my overweight, stretchmarked, pregnant body--and she still made me sexay.
